Chapter 645: Chapter 644: Seven Targets
"Of course I support it. It’s the International Madman, after all."
Yang Fei laughed heartily, exuding a kind of wild and arrogant aura: "After lying low for two years, us International Madmen are making a comeback to the Martial Arts World, and we’re going big."
Li Xuanyu giggled, "That’s the Madman King Tang I used to know."
As she spoke, she slightly reined in her smile, "Sky Net is closing in on us step by step, and the Federation is continuously expanding, trying to take complete control of Korea. I feel the situation is getting more and more serious. If we don’t launch a surprise counterattack while they are not paying attention and resolve this once and for all, we won’t have another chance."
Yang Fei knew that the ’we’ she referred to was the native residents of Korea.
"I don’t want to be crushed to powder by the torrent of history, to be eliminated by the new era. Now that I, Li Xuanyu, have taken over the Li Family’s Financial Group, I must have a place in the new world as well," Li Xuanyu said, brimming with confidence and determination.
Yang Fei hadn’t been very ambitious before.
But after being constantly influenced by Tong Yunshu’s pillow talk and now having fallen out with Qin Yanyang, he wanted to accomplish something great. Now feeling the fighting spirit emanating from Li Xuanyu, the seed inside him began to break through the soil and grow vigorously.
Why shouldn’t I, Yang Fei, fight for success if all these women are working so hard to make a career for themselves?
A new world, huh.
I, Yang Fei, will be the pioneer of this new world!
"What’s your next move? What are the odds of success?" Yang Fei asked.
When it came to the matter at hand, Li Xuanyu looked serious and pondered for a moment, "The troops have been stationed here for too long, and Sky Net has quietly intervened. Furthermore, many financial groups have been drawn to their side, our chances of success are less than thirty percent."
Yang Fei’s brow darkened, "You dare to initiate the fight with less than a thirty percent chance of victory?"
Li Xuanyu said helplessly, "I have no choice. Taking the initiative gives us a thirty percent chance of success—if we let the opponent attack first, we won’t stand a chance at all. But now that you’ve come to help me, I think it’s fifty-fifty."
Yang Fei got goosebumps, "Don’t butter me up, I’m not that capable."
"You are."
Li Xuanyu said with a smile, and although she was several years older than Yang Fei and appeared much more mature and stable, whenever she looked at his face, her eyes became adoring and wistful, filled with a blind worship akin to infatuation.
"Actually, I wasn’t just getting carried away wanting to go big. It was only after you called me three days ago, saying that you would come over and help me put an end to the problems here once and for all, that I made my final decision."
Feeling an immense pressure, Yang Fei said, "What do you need me to do?"
"The thing you’re best at. Decapitation strikes."
Li Xuanyu continued, "Since the first shot has already been fired and Cui Chicheng’s side has failed, we need to follow through. Tonight, we must decapitate Luo Bin. Only by doing so can we increase our chances of success and catch the enemy off guard."
"In modern warfare, if the problem cannot be resolved before dawn, we’ll be caught up in endless trouble. The enemy’s reinforcements will quickly catch up, and by then we’ll have no chance of winning."
A sense of urgency surged forth.
Yang Fei couldn’t help but feel a little resentful, "You should have informed me in advance. Now I’m clueless and very anxious."
"You just have to trust me one hundred percent."
Li Xuanyu said, "I’ve already made a comprehensive plan of action. All you need to do is execute the killings. Decapitate madly, behead all those who don’t comply, and ensure that by sunrise tomorrow, there won’t be a single voice in Qingwa Palace that supports the Federation."
As she spoke, Li Xuanyu pushed a stack of photos toward the five people in front of Yang Fei.
"This is Luo Bin, the current supreme commander of the troops. Oh, and his grandfather is Arthur Douglas. As people of the Divine Continent, you should be familiar with this man."
"Hehe, Arthur’s grandson, eh? That family is way too arrogant and overbearing in front of the people of Asia, they deserve a severe lesson," Yang Fei said. Although he wasn’t well-read, he was quite clear about that part of history.
"His name is Jin Zhongmei, the helmsman of the Jin Family, an absolute supporter of the stationed troops; he must die."
"His name is Park Ban-seong..."
Li Xuanyu introduced the names on the photos one by one, "There are only three hours left until dawn. You have seven targets to decapitate, seven key individuals who could affect the future landscape. As long as they are silenced forever, only our voice will be heard in Qingwa Palace by tomorrow’s sunrise."
"They are all under our control now, and although we only have three hours, luckily they are all in this city. With your abilities, I believe this beheading operation will be a complete success," he said.
"Time is too tight, and they’re not together; carrying out seven beheading operations separately might not be feasible in terms of time. Plus, once we behead one person, the others will become like frightened birds, very difficult to handle," Yang Fei frowned.
With his current cultivation realm, aside from those powerful cultivators, he was confident in beheading anyone in the mortal world.
But the problem was the lack of time and too many targets.
If the targets went into hiding, it would be very difficult.
"We can act separately," Umekawa Taro said.
Yang Fei slightly frowned.
He had thought of this as well.
But he also had his concerns.
He was now at the peak of Foundation Establishment, with a physical strength rarely matched in his time.
Coupled with the power of his Divine Soul, he could be said to be like a god among the secular.
Although Umekawa Taro and the three Xu brothers were also Innate realm experts, they might still face life-threatening dangers against modern characteristic weapons.
Not to mention, those beheading targets were also well-protected by martial arts experts. If they acted together, Yang Fei was a hundred percent confident in the success of the mission.
But if they were to act separately, he worried that the three Xu brothers and Umekawa Taro might not be able to handle it.
His own people were few in number; any loss would be a great pity.
"Tonight’s beheading operation has many targets, but these seven are the most troublesome, and there are many masters around them. To succeed, you must take action yourself," Li Xuanyu said.
Without hesitation, Yang Fei said, "Take me to Luo Bin’s location."
Since he decided to support Li Xuanyu unconditionally, it was time to act.
"Be careful; I’ll wait for your return," Li Xuanyu reminded him.
Yang Fei nodded.
Li Xuanyu gave Umekawa Taro a nod of acknowledgment, as a sign of thanks.
Facing the three from the Xu family, she bowed deeply, expressing her gratitude, "Xuanyu owes the Xu family a favor."
This was a promise.
The three Xu family members nodded silently.
They supported Yang Fei unconditionally, but since they were helping Li Xuanyu, receiving her gratitude and promise was deserved.
If today’s events were successful, this woman would have a place on the global stage in the future. At that time, her favor would undoubtedly be a guarantee for the Xu family.
Three minutes later, Yang Fei and four others boarded a helicopter.
The helicopter was loaded with many modern weapons, but also a few cold weapons.
Umekawa Taro chose a katana.
Xu Yunshan, Xu Liangyou, and Xu Xiao also selected specially made soft swords.
After some thought, Yang Fei took a Ghost Head Blade.
Only by personally severing the target’s head at close range was it truly a beheading!
